Industry Applications
Use it to integrate remote I/O, drives, and other devices via Modbus TCP or Ethernet/IP. The FDR server simplifies device replacement by automatically restoring configuration. In hazardous areas, the ATEX zone 2/22 and IECEx zone 2/22 certifications allow installation in gas and dust environments, reducing enclosure costs.

Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the module in any slot of a BMEXBP... Ethernet + X-bus rack. Ensure the rack provides adequate internal power. Use double shielded twisted pair cables with RJ45 connectors for each Ethernet port. Configure communication services using the web server or FactoryCast interface. For RSTP support, enable spanning tree protocol in the network settings to create redundant paths.
Maintenance & Reliability
The conformal coating protects against moisture and corrosive gases, making the module suitable for harsh industrial environments. The module meets gas resistant class Gx (ISA S71.04) and class 3C4 (IEC 60721-3-3), dust and sand resistant class 3S4, salt resistant level 2, and mold growth resistant class 3B2. Periodic inspection of Ethernet cable connections and LED status indicators (RUN, ERR, ETH MS, ETH NS) is recommended.
Ethernet Communication Module for Modicon M580 Systems
The Schneider BMENOC0311C is a communication module designed for the Modicon M580 range of programmable automation controllers. It provides three Ethernet ports with RJ45 connectors, supporting 10/100 Mbit/s transmission over double shielded twisted pair cable. This module is powered internally via the rack and is compatible with BMEXBP... Ethernet + X-bus racks.

Compatibility & Integration
It also functions as an SNMP network administrator, enabling centralized monitoring. The embedded multiport switch allows daisy-chaining without external switches, reducing hardware costs.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When selecting a communication module for your Modicon M580 system, verify the firmware version to ensure current consumption matches your power budget. For version >= 13, consumption is 900 mA at 3.3 V DC; for older versions, it is 1800 mA. Please verify current lifecycle status and availability with AutoDCSTech before ordering.
